I really appreciate Sinead O'connor. She also has PTSD. She's like a hero for me. I am so glad that she has found success even with PTSD. I love listening to her music. She incorporates so much that is beautiful into her music, despite her traumatic history. It inspires me not to give up hope, although I so often want to.
 
Wow thanks for the reminder about Sinead. I love her music and have not thought about her in years. I have never heard she has PTSD. I recall when she first hit the radio, oh the controversy and the belittling as she was bald! Never judge a book by it's cover.
 
This is one of her songs that I like a lot. It's kind of bitter and beautiful at the same time.

It reminds me of the Ho'oponopono which is a song from Hawaii. It goes: I'm sorry, I love you, Please forgive me, Thank you. I like that song too.
 
"Back Where You Belong"
by Sinead Oconnor

Oh it's hard to
be a boy
when
all the men have
lost their joy
and they can't find the ones they left behind.

Harder still to think
of being a man
in this world of
no lessons or love,
it's only war that men be thinking of.

Should you stay
or should you come down with me?
Is that the question
you are asking of me?
And do you think that you can
take the answer?
As it turns,
you have to wear life well.

Come down with me,
come down
when you need me
but for now I want you
to be happy.

Sometimes life does
things to you
that will hurt you
and confuse you,
but when you're left behind
you're sure to find.

I am with you though I can't
come with you.
I am in you and I'm
always part of you,
and all you ever have to do
to bring me to you

Is come down with me,
come down
when you need me,
but for now I want you
to be happy.

So you must go back home,
that's where you belong.
You must go back home.

You must go back home,
that's where you belong.

You must go back home,
and I can't come along...
